安樂工程(01977.HK)就競委會訴訟支付罰款共1.5億元 另料全年純利跌60%至65%
由前律政司司長鄭若驊丈夫潘樂陶任主席的安樂工程(01977.HK)公布,於昨日(3日)公司及其全資附屬安樂機電設備就解決訴訟及競爭事務委員會將於適當時候向多名答辯人(包括安樂機電設備及數名第三方)發出的第二輪訴訟,訂立一項合作協議,公司將不會在第二輪訴訟中被列為答辯人。
據此,競爭事務委員會同意向競爭事務審裁處提出申請,暫停對公司的訴訟,直至其已結束其對訴訟中其他各方的法律程序;於訴訟及第二輪訴訟結束時向審裁處申請,終止其於訴訟中,針對公司的案件;及向審裁處建議,由審裁處頒令安樂機電設備就其構成訴訟及第二輪訴訟之標的事項,向香港政府支付罰款合共1.5億元。上述申請及建議金額將受限於審裁處的命令。協議部分主要條款包括安樂機電設備承認責任,及關鍵條件包括公司及安樂機電設備,根據協議條款持續與委員會合作。
此外,公司發盈警指出,鑑於協議及第二輪訴訟,集團現將集團訴訟責任撥備,由6,000萬元增加9,000萬元,至總額1.5億元。另基於集團截至今年9月底止九個月的最近期未經審核綜合管理賬目,與截至去年12月底止年度相比,集團及其聯營公司的業務表現轉差,原因是疫情的影響、供應鏈中斷、材料成本增加及有關政府部門於2022年停止補貼援助。公司初步估計,截至今年12月底止年度將錄得純利按年減少約60%至65%,去年同期純利約3.14億元。
